Pillow Boxes




Last minute gift Wrap Idea for
Small things....Like gift cards or jewelry
..and for pennys...



I got this pattern from
Aboutdotcom cut out and trace
onto card stock.


Make creases with a stilist 

Use your thumb nail to crease
the curves..Double stick tape the
crease at the top and tape to the 
oposite side




Wrap with twine, string, rick rack,
what ever you have on hand...Done
faster than you could have drove to
the store and bought one and cheaper.

  4. Wow! I'm so impressed that you just whipped up your own box. I'm known to wrap gifts in any boxes I can scavenge around the house. (ie pasta or perhaps oxy clean) Your boxes are much prettier!

  13. Hello, I love this pillow box you made.. It is so cute! It's the perfect packaging for small gifts :) I just finished a 'survival kit, craft round-up and I was looking for some container ideas for them and ran across your pillow box. It would be the perfect container for a smaller kit. I hope you don't mind, I featured your cute pillow box as an example of a container that can be used. You can see it here:
